7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
generating for display, using the control circuitry, an option for a user to opt out of receiving product data;
receiving, via the user input circuitry, a selection of the option; and
in response to receiving the selection of the option, preventing, using the control circuitry, display of the list including the one or more products of the plurality of products.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
generating for display, using the control circuitry, one of a video clip and an image for each product in the list, wherein the one of the video clip and the image include a scene from the media asset featuring the product.
9. A system for receiving product data, the system comprising:
user input circuitry;
control circuitry configured to:
receive, from a server, data for a plurality of products featured in a media asset and a plurality of timestamps for the media asset, wherein each timestamp is associated with one of the plurality of products featured in the media asset;

retrieve, from a memory, a viewing history for a user;
identify a portion of the media asset that has not been viewed by the user based on the viewing history;
determine a timestamp of the plurality of timestamps related to the portion of the media asset not viewed by the user; and
identify a product of the plurality of products associated with the timestamp;
receive, from the user input circuitry, a selection of a product in the list; and
transmit, to the server, a request for a portion of the media asset featuring the selected product based on a timestamp associated with the selected product.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the data for the plurality of products featured in the media asset includes at least one of product information, a category, a price, and a vendor for each product of the plurality of products.
11. The system of claim 9 , wherein the control circuitry configured to generate for display the list including the one or more products of the plurality of products is further configured to:
receive, from the user input circuitry, a category; and
determine a product of the plurality of products associated with the category.
12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
generate for display an option for a user to purchase the product;
receive, via the user input circuitry, a selection of the option; and
